When I was younger I was notorious for getting bored with bikes and changing them often, to the extent that I ended up becoming a small time bike trader. Luckily I managed to remember most of those I'd bought and sold

List the bikes you've owned, lets see who owned the lemons and who had the classy stuff.

My list looks like this, but there must be a handful I've forgotten, I just know it:

And my list (Which I know is a little long for someone who has only been riding since Nov) -


1st - 56 Plate Haotian Vixen HT125-8 - Chinese bikes rule (No really they do, I'm not joking) - Sold when doing DAS.

2nd (ish) - K6 Bandit, ordered when doing DAS, but then cancelled when I inujured myself and couldn't finish my DAS.

3rd - 07 Plate Honda Varadero - 2 months later I passed my test and traded her in for..........

4th - 05 Plate K4 SV650S.

I bet I've got the shortest list per time of riding :-

1980-81, Suzuki GS250T
1981-84, Yamaha XS850
2003-06, Yamaha XJ600 Diversion
2006-07, Suzuki SV650

4 bikes / 27 years = 0.15 bikes/annum
(disregarding 19 years lay off of course ;) )

Just the one, my Virago 125 which was, well, an awful nail but still a great friend to me.

Funny thing, despite being 125cc and about 150 kilos wet, it was a more convincing looking cruiser than the Virago 535 :) Sounded like a hairdryer though, at least till the exhaust rusted through.
